State prepares to serve students during summer

The Summer Food Service Program (SFSP) is looking for eligible sponsors in metro Atlanta to serve nutritious meals to children this summer. The SFSP, administered by Bright from the Start: Georgia Department of Early Care and Learning (DECAL), is funded by the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA). Non-profits and government organizations are reimbursed for providing about 3.5 million free meals to eligible children, especially in low-income areas, during the summer months, who would normally qualify for breakfast and/or lunch at school.
